Iris halophila is a rhizomatous perennial plant with yellow, white, or violet flowers. It is native to a wide range of temperate regions, from eastern Europe to China in Asia. It was previously classified as a subspecies of Iris spuria but is now recognized as a separate species. The plant has stout, thick rhizomes and greyish-green, sword-shaped leaves. It produces 3-8 flowers per stem in early summer, ranging in color from white to violet. The plant is cultivated as an ornamental in temperate regions and is known for its ability to tolerate salty soils. It has been studied for its biochemistry, including the discovery of new chemical compounds. It is also used in Chinese herbal medicine. Variants and hybrids of Iris halophila exist, including Iris halophila var. sogdiana.

Germination/Propagation Top
Suggest a correction or add new data!| Begin at 20°C for 6 weeks, cool to 4°C for 6 weeks, then gradually increase to 10°C over 6 weeks. If no germination, the cycle is repeated. |
| Requires Soaking: These seeds need to be soaked in warm water until they swell, which can take 24-48 hours. Seeds that float are usually not viable and should be discarded, along with the soaking water. |
| sow fresh or soak old seed; prechill 4 weeks or place outdoors over winter and bring indoors once germinated to avoid temperature shock; transplant at 4 leaves |
